I'm excited to be supporting women’s mental health programs at Halton Healthcare by participating in the LOVE YOU by Shoppers Drug Mart™ Run for Women.
It’s not easy, but it’s easier together.
As many of us are experiencing, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on our mental health. We do the best we can everyday and some days are better than others.
Most days I wear my heart on my sleeve yet others, when I'm struggling most, I turn inward to self-preservation and protection mode.
Many of you wouldn't know of my own physical or mental health struggles and that's not so much out of shame but more-so because I often dig deep and carry on. More and more I realize that it's okay to stop, rest, get help and take those mental health breaks we all need.
As I recently read "sometimes those walls we hit are put there on purpose, giving us something to lean on when it's all too much". Whether it's a wall you've hit or a friend you need I'm happy to do what I can to help you too!
Please consider donating to help me reach my fundraising goal. 100% of the fundraising proceeds will go directly to women’s mental health programs in our community. There can't be a better time than now.
